My buddy bicycling buddy whilst bicycling one night
slowed way down at a red light, looked and saw no other
vehicles moving on either road and then proceeded through
the red light. Unfortunately for him there was a "letter
of the Law police officer sitting in a cruiser and that
officer gave my buddy a ticket.
Was the cruiser hiding beind a billboard? Camouflaged as a parked and
empty private car?
Interesting question. I suppose spotting a patrol car might be a
reasonable criterion for "Did you check well enough?"

The cop was a fair distance back on a road that crosses the road my buddy was on. The cop car was parked and hidden by a berm that was at 90 degrees to the route my buddy was riding.
